My least favorite subject was English. My favorite was Science.

What was different now then when you went high school?

Cell phones were not a big deal; I would put my cell phone in my locker and forget about it.

What type of car did you drive?

I drove a 1996 Green Saturn, the interior was beige color, the previous owner was a smoker so the interior near the roof was sagging down because of all the smoke.

I worked as a custodian. I made $12 an hour. The worst thing I had to clean was a dead bat in a classroom.

My favorite high school memory was the pep rally’s they were really fun. We had to make a five-minute skid for pep rally.

If you could change high school would you change?

I would play music over the intercom during passing period.

What is something that your high school did differently then what Parkway West High School does now? 

Our school for graduation would have us drive five miles an hour and we would have a parade from the middle school to the high school.
